6501 Staghorn Cv, Austin, TX 78759

Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in Northwest Austin, this beautifully maintained home offers the perfect balance of privacy, convenience, and neighborhood charm. Located in the highly desirable 78759 zip code, this home sits minutes from The Domain, major tech employers, top-rated schools, and some of Austin’s best dining and shopping—while still feeling peaceful and residential. Inside, you’ll find a bright, functional layout designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Natural light fills the home, and thoughtful updates throughout make it truly move-in ready. The backyard offers a private retreat with mature trees—ideal for relaxing evenings, playtime, or entertaining guests. Homes in this neighborhood rarely come available. This is a unique opportunity to own in one of Austin’s most established and convenient areas.

Size, school path, and lot position are the clear advantages at 6501 Staghorn Cv, a 3,700 square foot single family residence on 0.28 acres in Great Hills within Austin 78759 and Travis County. That combination is hard to ignore at $1.30 million, or $351 per square foot, especially for a five bedroom, four bath layout with a three car garage, pool, and fireplace. The location also places the home in Round Rock ISD, with Caraway Elementary, Canyon Vista Middle, and Westwood High serving the address, which matters for buyers who weigh long term livability as seriously as the house itself.

Built in 1988 and now 60 days on market, the property sits on a cul-de-sac, which typically changes how a home lives day to day. Traffic patterns are lighter, the setting reads more residential, and the lot can feel more protected than a comparable home on a through street. In this part of Northwest Austin, that matters because buyers are usually balancing quiet neighborhood character against practical access. The value proposition here is exactly that balance. The home is positioned minutes from The Domain, major tech employers, and established dining and shopping, while still offering a more insulated neighborhood setting than many close-in options.

The configuration also gives this property broader utility than a standard move up house. Five bedrooms and four baths create flexibility for larger households, long term guests, dedicated office space, or multi-use living arrangements without forcing tradeoffs room by room. A pool and 0.28-acre lot strengthen that utility outside, adding usable yard area and a clear separation between indoor living and outdoor recreation. The three car garage is another detail sophisticated buyers notice because it supports storage, hobby use, and day to day function in a way a tighter garage count does not.

In market terms, 6501 Staghorn Cv stands out because it combines established 1980s scale, a cul-de-sac setting, strong school alignment, and practical Northwest Austin access in one package. For buyers focused on Great Hills and the broader 78759 market, this is the kind of property that holds relevance over time because the fundamentals buyers keep paying for are already in place.

Great Hills has a golf course that most Austin residents forget exists - the Great Hills Country Club, a private 18-hole layout threaded through mature live oaks that has been quietly anchoring this neighborhood since 1980. The club's understated presence tells you everything about Great Hills itself, a neighborhood that does not draw attention but consistently delivers one of the most convenient daily lives in northwest Austin.

Great Hills sits between US 183 to the south, Loop 360 to the west, and the Balcones Canyonlands to the north, placing it in the middle of Austin's tech corridor. The Arboretum forms the commercial anchor along Research Boulevard, and The Domain is about seven minutes north on MoPac. Apple's campus on Parmer is roughly 15 minutes away. IBM's Austin facility sits even closer along Burnet Road. Downtown runs about 20 minutes south on MoPac. The Arboretum area provides H-E-B, Whole Foods, and enough services to handle most errands locally.

Housing dates from the late 1970s through the early 2000s, giving it a more established feel than newer communities to the north. You will find single-story ranch homes, two-story traditional builds, and larger custom homes along golf course and greenbelt lots. Most range from 2,000 to 4,000 square feet on quarter-acre to half-acre lots. Original builds feature brick and wood exteriors, while renovated homes incorporate limestone and expanded outdoor areas. Pricing runs from the mid-$500s for dated homes up to $1.5 million for renovated golf course or greenbelt properties. The mature tree canopy is a genuine asset that newer subdivisions cannot replicate.

Great Hills feeds into Round Rock ISD for most addresses, which surprises buyers who assume the 78759 zip falls within Austin ISD. Spicewood Elementary and Anderson Mill Elementary serve younger grades, with Canyon Vista Middle School handling the transition. Westwood High School has a strong reputation for math and science. The Round Rock ISD affiliation is a selling point, as the district outperforms Austin ISD on state assessments. Some southern addresses do fall within Austin ISD, so verifying by specific address matters.

Daily life balances suburban comfort with easy access to dining and outdoor recreation. The Great Hills Park Trail winds through the greenbelt. St. Edwards Park on Bull Creek offers swimming holes and hiking terrain that feels wild despite surrounding development. The restaurant options nearby are among Austin's best. Truluck's does upscale seafood. Perry's Steakhouse brings its pork chop Friday tradition. Roaring Fork handles Western American cuisine. North Italia covers pasta in a polished setting. Uchiko serves some of the most inventive Japanese food in Texas. Bartlett's anchors the casual American end with steaks and a bar feel.

Great Hills occupies middle ground between Cat Mountain's established wealth and newer developments in Cedar Park. It is more affordable than the 360 corridor. It offers more mature landscaping than Burnet Road infill. And it provides better tech corridor access than south Austin at comparable prices. The tradeoff is age - much of the stock is 30 to 40 years old, and buyers should budget for roof replacements, plumbing updates, and foundation work on Central Texas clay.

Great Hills makes sense for tech workers at Apple, IBM, or Meta who want a short commute and an established neighborhood. It fits families who value Round Rock ISD without living in Round Rock. It works for anyone who wants upscale dining within five minutes but prefers sleeping in a quiet, tree-covered neighborhood. If you need brand-new construction or walkable urbanism, look elsewhere. But if you want central location, mature trees, good schools, and a golf course visible from your back fence, Great Hills checks those boxes.
